We want to see longer nicknames <chants>

[FlamingoOfTheShineyCult]

Dear MNHQ

Please can you re-instate the longer nicknames on the top of posts?

Thank you

[LyraSilvertongue]

Yes, cut-off nicknames are pointless.

[TheFool]

I'm with them

[TrillianoftheShineyCult]

We understand that you need space for the date etc, but there's room left for a few more characters.

If it's not going to show up on our posts then you should restrict the length at the point when we choose the nickname.

[Tortington]

get a shorter name you letter hoggers

[TrillianoftheShineyCult]

While we're at it can we have a sticking-out-tongue emoticon?

[sticks out tongue]

There ya go

[TrillianoftheShineyCult]

Hi BALD!

[SoupDragon]

There are cut-off nicknames??

[TrillianoftheShineyCult]

In MN New, which I assume MNHQ want us to use since they paid someone to make it, the name above a post gets cut off after a certain number of characters. It's annoying.

[SoupDragon]

Pah! New is not always better, see.

[TheChilliMooseIsRubbish]

Yeah, I like to change mine every day or so once in a while, but now no-one gets to see it and therefore you are missing out on the full chilli experience

[GarconsSontCommeDesChiens]

at Trillian's french speaking skills

[Jaquelinehyde]

Yes give us longer names

[JustineMumsnet]

Ok Ok - we'll see if we can squeeze in a few more - bear with us though BitTech is very hard to pin down at the moment .

[TrillianoftheShineyCult]

Yay! Thank you!

[MadameCastafiore]

Ah ha!

Just checking - I have no issue with this as my name is in full!

Carry on bickering girls!

[GarconsSontCommeDesChiens]

psssst if you have MN classic it ain't a prob

[TheChilliMooseIsRubbish]

Is there a way to put inback to MN classic?

[FlamingoOfTheShineyCult]

yay, yay, yay!

Garcons - all new posters will be on new MN, so using classic hardly counts if only old posters will see the names.

[GarconsSontCommeDesChiens]

go to my mumsnet, then I forget how to change to classic, have a fiddle, gwan

[TheChilliMooseIsRubbish]

Done it I just had to go the customise bit at the top. D'oh!

[GarconsSontCommeDesChiens]

hurrah
